Staggering how good they were. This is 1994 Earl's Court in London, England. They used to run three fleets of trucks. One for the venue they were playing, one they just played, and one for the next stadium. In addition, the sound went all the way around the venue. So there were speakers everywhere. And at various times there were different sections bathed in light, inflatable giant pigs, and airplanes crashing and exploding. There was no substitute for a live Floyd show back in their heyday.

I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show Syracuse Carrier Dome in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all. When the “Disco Ball’ was uncovered and the lights hit it….. WHAT IS HAPPENING was what I said….The entire crowd was held in a trace and our minds totally blown by what we witnessed.

Welcome to the best solo ever recorded 👍♥️

Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"... I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. Hard to explain how awesome that moment was in my life. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen. I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold. All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS

Talk about a coincidence. I had a similar thing happen in 1980. I won 3rd row tickets to The Wall on Feb 10th at the LA Sports Arena. Except, I won mine on KLOS (still have the rainbow bumper sticker with "Pink Floyd" in the middle). I can remember just about every minute of it to this day. Back then, when you got backstage it was always after the show. Problem was, after playing two hours no one wanted to be bothered. Plus, they were a mess internally. We got to talk to Gilmour and Mason for about five minutes. Waters was supposed to stay but disappeared immediately after the show. Wright was contractually forbidden from meeting with anyone because he wasn't technically a member of the band, he was a contracted session player. Its funny you mention Cynthia Fox. She was the MC for The Wall shows. When she came out after the intermission she was hammered. She could barely walk. Someone threw a beach ball that bounced off a monitor and hit her in the head. You want to see mesmerized. The Wall was that and then some. Its not like now, where people basically know what The Wall was. Back then, we had no clue what was going on. All we knew is that, somehow, there were two Pink Floyds on stage and for half the show the roadies were taking down a wall and rebuilding it in front of them. For the other half of the show, we couldn't see anyone except through little holes here and there. This song was the first time you really saw anyone after the break. I saw Gilmour play this song on an even more iconic guitar. The original. The Black Strat :). I get sick every time I see Jim Irsay play it.

I was there that night at Earls Court in London. I was 45 at the time and I don't mind admitting that I had tears rolling down my face for most of the concert. The girl next to me collapsed under the weight of emotion and I had to help her friend pick her up and put her in her seat. I honestly don't think they'll ever be another like it. ✌️♥️🇬🇧

One doesn't merely listen to Pink Floyd. One experiences Pink Floyd. Welcome aboard.

Pink Floyd were renown for the massive productions they put on for their concerts.

As for the production: nobody has pulled off anything comparable ever since, the Pulse Tour has been unmatched. They had three complete stage sets (one was taken apart from the previous concert, while they were playing the concert on the second and the third was being assembled fro the next concert. The lights at the bottom of the center stage were airport runway lights, because nothing else was powerful enough. And this was the first show in history, we’re the Lightshow was synchronized with the music by computers. This was so ahead of it’s time back then, that something like this has not been recreated ever since. This whole concert was epic and has set a benchmark for decades to come and has thus reserved its place in music history. And the 6 min second solo of Comfortably Numb is allegedly the best guitar solo ever played on this planet!

The concert has many more mind blowing hits. Also, this Pulse concert performs the album Dark side of the Moon in its entirety ! Best concert ever !

David Gilmore is a poet with his guitar. His note placement is perfection. His solos add continuity to the song, holds it together, instead of breaking the song up like other solos do.

Bros, this is a masterpiece of music. And one of the best ever rock guitar solos.

This version of Comfortably Numb is widely thought to be the very best version of this song ever recorder by Pink Floyd.

I was there and it was the best concert ever. No stereo is able to do it justice though as they played their music through a stadium sized quadraphonic sound system which just blows you away. This was Earl's Court, London.

One of the greatest bands of all time.

This was 1994 and to this day no one has surpassed this show. I saw this tour in DC at RFK stadium. Best show ever.

Pink Floyd created their own Genre. I consider their music a journey, a Rollercoaster of emotion that gives you a journey of life and after life . This band is just unique and the content is smart and imaginative. Thanks for covering Pink Floyd, you guys do a wonderful job!

Pink Floyd always has an incredible light show at their concerts. It helps with my high 😉

Gentlemen, we never stop a Pink Floyd song during the guitar solo. :)

Pink Floyd’s music is totally different than what I imagined it to be. I am totally digging this!

That's Pink Floyd own stage, they owned all of it, the stage, the rigs, the lights, the audio, the giant disco ball that opened up, the production, everything you see and hear, they owned!! And they owned 3 of those,... three of those stages, rigs, lights, audio, disco ball! All of it, Three! Pink Floyd had these 3 identical stages and rigs built,... including the huge quadrophonic speaker systems, for the North American Tour,... The stages and equipment leapfrogged from venue to venue, all across North American continent in 1994. They needed three stages and rigs because of the time it took to "load in" (set up), and "load out" (teardown), the stage, the rigs, all the equipment, everything! It took 3 full days to setup, (load in),... and two and a half days to tear it all down, (load out)! So they absolutely had to have more than one stage to do all the tour dates. The 1994 Pulse Concert/Division Bell World Tour was the largest world tour at the time. Approximately 700 tons of steel, 53 trailer trucks to transport the equipment, 161 crew members. Each stage was 180 feet long, and 130 feet high, resembling the Hollywood Bowl, the running costs alone just to stage this tour was $29 million! The Division Bell Tour played to almost 6 million people in 68 cities, averaging 45,000 people per each event. The tour grossed $250 million worldwide. As massive as this tour was, The Wall Tour was even more complex and much more challenging. So much so that they had to limit the number of performances, the Division Bell Tour had 58 dates in the U.S., The Wall Tour had only 12 dates in the U.S. in 1980.

One of the best bands ever. Been on since 1965. And the guitar solo is, in my opinion, the best. 😀 Greetings from Norway.

Floyd was in a league of their own, arguably the greatest of all the Prog rock bands. I saw them only once but that has provided me with a lifetime of memories. David Gilmour’s guitar solo is flat out legendary. Great reaction and thanks for representing Tiki Barber too. 🏈

You have TOTALLY gotta make your way through this entire “PULSE” concert - 2.5 hours of pure out-of-body sublime majesty, from Pink Floyd and the greatest live production ever captured for posterity. 🤯🤯🤯

This is my favorite band of all time…this guitar solo hits in a different way…Absolute Masterpiece!! ✌🏻☀️

I was at Earls Court in London October 1994 when The Pulse Tour Concerts were held and nobody or no-one comes even close to the shows Pink Floyd produce in their Concerts from Musically, Visually, Special Effects, Lights and Lasers, Pyrotechnics and Inflatable Animals (Mostly Algie the Pig)..You reacted to Comfortably Numb from the Pulse Concert and were blown away but the whole concert from start to finish is exactly the same with visuals and effects so you need to watch the whole Pulse Concert which also includes the whole of Dark Side Of The Moon in Set 2..+ the Encore which has Comfortably Numb (What you saw) anf finishes with 'Run Like Hell' were the whole of the stage and the giant video screen explodes like a bomb has gone off..!! The GREATEST CONCERT OF ALL TIME 👌🤩✌️😇

I was fortunate enough to see them live in 1988 when I was 19yo. Fantastic concert!

I've seen Pink Floyd live 3 times, Once in JFK Stadium in Philadelphia and twice in Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia in 1988, I think they played 3 nights in a row at the Vet, phenomenal shows, unreal lights, flying pigs, planes crashing into the stage, the production was incredible.

I saw that concert, the most amazing one in my life. Love from France 🇫🇷😘

"Guitar without the knobs." Tuning mechanism switched. Anchored end of strings at neck. Parliament is the Funk version of Pink Floyd.

So glad you got to this video. Definitely among my top 5 favorite videos.

I remember the first time I saw this video back in 1995 after I'd returned from a tour of duty. To say it was life changing is putting it politely. I cant even begin to imagine what it must have been like to have been there on the night. I've been lucky enough to see Gilmour's band play it in 2006 at the Albert Hall, but this footage... man, this was something else.

I saw this Pulse concert in 1994 in Earl's Court, London and it was like something out of this world - FANTASTIC ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I've been a Pink Floyd fan for over 50 years and it is wonderful that they still have the power to capture new audiences. This is the best version of this song with David Gilmour's solo being probably the best ever. The whole show is just mindblowing. The venue was Earl's Court, London, 1994.

I read where it cost them $800,000 a day to put this show on and that was back in 1994 you could probably double that today at least!! Every song Pink Floyd does in this concert is at least equivalent to almost any other groups finale! I've seen these guys four times in three different decades and I've also seen about 100 concerts in my lifetime from AC DC to Led Zeppelin and everyone in between alphabetically and never seen a better show than Floyd puts on!!!! Last comment if you want to see a FULL-SIZE AIRPLANE" crash into the stage and explode during this same concert do the song "On the Run" from their Dark Side of the Moon album.

Saw 2 gigs at Earl's court on this tour, part of a 14 night residency. So many memories! On the sing Sorrow (which you should definitely review!!!) you could see & feel the walls shake when the big power chords hit. Floyd play loud, very loud. But always crystal clear The presentation of the gigs was unsurpassed and remains so to this day.. The sound was quadrophonic, so you had different sounds coming at you from all angles. Other tracks from this concert I'd love to see your reactions to: Sorrow High Hopes Keep Talking One of these days Run Like Hell. (although every song in the concert is a winner!) Good stuff guys!

The year was 1994, the venue was Earls Court in London. It has an 80,000 capacity, but they didn't just fill it for that one night - they filled it FOURTEEN NIGHTS IN A ROW. I first saw them in 1968. I also saw them in 1974, also at Earls Court, when they released 'Dark Side of the Moon'.

1994, this was the 5th and final time I saw them live. Was fortunate enough to sit front row center in the New Orleans Superdome for Pulse. I remember having to turn around from the stage to watch the disco ball open up at the end. ( which in the moment seemed counterintuitive to take my eyes off the stage for a second) There’s been no concert experience like this one, before or since.

When you watch Echoes part 1 live from Pompeii you will see them in the early 70s and see Gilmour's guitar genius, Water's bass, and drummer Nick Mason have been top tier at their instruments from the 60s through now. RIP keyboardist Richard Wright

The entire concert was just amazing. Goosebumps. Pink Floyd is the master of psychedelic rock.. leaves you just memorized..

I was lucky enough to get to Earls Court in '94 for this concert. Greatest live band ever! Greatest live show ever!

When you talk about the cost of production for that tour, keep in mind that just about all of the effects, lighting, and technology in this show were the absolute cutting-edge at the time (1994). They even customized the setup of the sound system for each venue, with speakers providing 360-degree surround sound! 😳🤯 It was beyond epic! 🤘😎

This whole concert has a futuristic vibe, given the light show quality --and this show took place in 1994! I saw David Gilmour (the singer/guitarist) on a solo tour he did in 2016. He still played a lot of Pink Floyd classics like this and still had a light show. If you want to check out a more recent performance by David Gilmour, I suggest this same song, 'Comfortably Numb', David Gilmour, Live in Pompeii, 2016.' He was 70 years old that year and still sounded great! As for the Pulse concert, I suggest checking out 'Sorrow'.

This song is about an overdose. My son died 1 year ago from a fentanyl overdose. STRANGE but I find comfort in this song. Miss you Alex. Love mommy.

Why are you doing air guitar!? Get one and learn to play instead of pretending. Disturbing!

I had the privilege of seeing them in Raleigh, NC during this tour - as usually, they sounded amazing, and they ALWAYS put on a great show!

The band was named in homage of two old black blues musicians from North Carolina, PINK Anderson and FLOYD Council. At first they called themselves; "The Pink Floyd Sound", later shortening it to just Pink Floyd. A band like no other, a genre' unto themselves! The cerebral band of Rock & Roll.

That lighting production was from 1994. It was recorded at Earls Court in London. The lighting fixtures that they used are called Vari Lights, the sound system was Turbosounf Flashlight and Floodlight series speakers. The touring production of this had two full set ups that were leapfrog around the world, and it took a crew of 200 people working around the clock for two weeks straight to set up each production. The stadiums that they were playing did not have enough power to run their own light show so they had to bring their own generator trucks with them to run the shows. I am a professional concert Sound Engineer for the last 39 years and read everything I could find on this tour when it was happening.

Pink Anderson and Floyd Council are the root of the bands name. Both were 1920’s blues musicians. Suggestion for a song, listen to Suppers Ready by Genesis when Peter Gabriel was still the original front man. There are many videos from the early 70s of the group playing live. Great commentary!

Pink Floyd wrote masterpieces. That's why their music will go on forever. Comfortably Numb played with the bands awesome guitar solo added to the strings is unbelievable.

My Dad requested that one too. We actually know about that song but I’ve never actually seen the band. So that might be a good one to look into. Thank you!!

@@AirplayBeats You will be so glad you heard that masterpiece. Imagine being 13 years old, buy the album, with three friends in my room light two joints and a bong, listen to this song change our lives forever.

PF was doing surround sound and crazy light shows with lasers when I first saw them in the mid seventies.. Great work guys, keep them coming.

Guys, u have to watch the whole show!! I saw them 3x in Toronto and truly experiences I'll remember for rest of my life. Amazing sound and visuals like nothing else.

This recording was done at Earls Court in London, but P.F. had 31 tractor trailers to haul the 4 stages they used, around the world. I saw them in D.C. that tour, and the production value was through the roof! The band even stated that they knew they were losing money, but the show was for the fans, not their wallets. I mean, they had the entire stadium encircled in speakers, and the show was put on in full surround sound. The technology used, for 94, was the tops. Some stuff was so new, like the gold lasers, only they were licensed to use them

I have seen Pink Floyd 2 times and man wath a show ❤

Hey Fellas. So glad you checked out this version of "Comfortably Numb". As you said the light show and the sound quality were both amazing and it made you wish you were there to share this amazing concert with them. Back in the day (late 60's, early 70's) when I was playing concerts with my band they would often put the sound and light show credits on the marquee. Suffice it to say, we never had any light and sound quality of this caliber. Pink Floyd always put on a great show and covered every aspect of what a band should be in a live performance. Once again, thanks for reacting to this. Peace.

Pink Floyd 🌈 The Great Song 👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽🤗🌈🇹🇭🙏🤟From Thailand 🙏

That solo is just one of the best ever everytime I know it’s cliche but it is what it is SRV vibez when it comes to being one w the guitar

Finally someone recognized the second part of the presentation - the amazing staging

Imagine the feeling of being the guy putting all of those people in a trance like that

This was all over. I saw this in Cleveland in 94. 110,100 on the first bite and 115,000 on the second note. Unforgettable. It was silent during this song, everyone stood there with their mouths open.

The song High Hopes from this same Concert is outstanding.

Good Reaction Guys ESPECIALLY the Guy on the right who ignored a few attempts to stop the recording and maintain the flow, rhythm, and momentum as, at one point, our friend wanted to chat about the nobs on the guitar mid-song 😀 This was in London in 1994 and the lighting cost was phenomenal.

I saw Pink Floyd in 1987 five times .this was a momentary lapse of reason tour,they played at the Brendan Byrne arena and Madison Square Garden for the New York area shows.I also saw them 2 times at Giants stadium in 1994,that was The division Bell tour. The light shows inside the arenas were much smaller obviously than Giants stadium but they went balls to the wall in 1994 with the light shows at Giants stadium . It was really like an out-of-body experience, it's hard to explain but it might have been the three hash brownies I ate. The laser lights ,that giant flower that opened up , also that giant bed that came hurtling down from the rafters was another crazy thing to see. Plus the giant inflatable pig 🐖. It was a phenomenal show all of them. Between Gilmour's guitar and Richard Wright's Hammond organ , it was hypnotic!! Not to mention Gilmour's tremendous vocals and solos. It's a shame they haven't toured in so long. I did get to see David gilmour solo tour at Jones Beach in Long Island and that was pretty damn good too. Although it's too late to see Pink Floyd you can still catch Gilmour if he goes on tour again, it's well worth it!!!

Because of all of the visuals & lighting, Pink Floyd barely broke even on this tour. But they'd already made their dough by then !! It was all about the performance & the show. And they did their thing !!

what music is all about, heaven in one song perfomance

Saw them 3 times. Mind blown each time. Notice how the people sit motionless absorbing ever note and every visual. Ultimate respect for Floyd.

I’m jealous

Masters of light and sound 🤘🤘

I saw that tour twice, epic!!

Floyd is the only concert ive ever been to where the audience makes no sound until the end of a song. Totaly captivating

Tee shirt, blue jeans, and absolutely no auto tune. Just pure talent and skill. We were there for the music back in the great days of the greatest music, musicians, ever. It was all about the music. And they delivered. Edited to say, The light shows are a nice extra, but they didn't need it. No bands ever had light shows back in the great days of music, it really was all about the music.

I was one of the VERY VERY LUCKY PEOPLE to have been at Earls Court London for The Pulse Tour in October 1994..!! Undoubtedly the GREATEST CONCERT OF ALL TIME..From Musically, Visually, Lighting and Lazers, Pyrotechnics, Speacial Effects and A Theatrical Masterpiece..!! I was sitting in the Top Balcony directly opposite the Giant Mirror Ball that descended from the ceiling in Comfortably Numb and 30years later it still sends shivers down my spine and tears to my eyes when I watch it or listen to it again..!! Will Never Ever Be Another Concert That Comes Even Close To The Performance and Perfection of That Concert..!! ✌️🫶👌

Gentlemen you guys have just started your Floyd journey keep it going each album, song is unique to itself. I see you guys started with Dark Side continue with Wish You Were Here, The Wall and then my favorite The Animals album. Have fun enjoy the Pink Floyd experience.

I Had the pleasure of seeing Pink Floyd three times during the late 70's and 80's. Every one of them had an incredible light show.

The whole production with sound, light, film was analog. Even the recorded soundtrack was analog. All lights was special build for the show.

"Three stages leap-frogged around North America and Europe, each 180 feet (55 m) long and featuring a 130-foot (40 m) arch resembling the Hollywood Bowl venue. All in all, the tour required 700 tons of steel carried by 53 articulated trucks, a crew of 161 people and an initial investment of US$4 million plus US$25 million of running costs just to stage." "This tour played to 5.5 million people in 68 cities; each concert gathered an average 45,000 audience. At the end of the year, the Division Bell Tour was announced as the biggest tour ever, with worldwide gross of over £150 million (about US$250 million)." Crazy to put this much effort into realizing your vision. 700 tons of steel! I saw this show in Toronto, it was like seeing God, it was truly mind-blowing. To me this is the definitive Floyd experience. No other Floyd album or concert is worth hearing over this show. Start at the beginning and watch it all, it's their greatest achievement, and a true work of art.
